In her recent series titled Frax 4-D, Holly Armishaw bridges the distance between a "normative" photography, exemplified by a generic horizontal
landscape-format photograph, which is the familiar fundament of pictorial space, and a completely synthesized digital image, a mathematically-generated "morphed" shape not recognizable as any particular form.In her attempt to represent the "unseeable", a hypothetical, "supernatural" reality, her work reveals the fragility of photographic representation and introduces into it a new kind of abstraction.
